William Paulet

Here is a repeat of an old article.  So who was William Paulet?  He was a participant in many of the famous events in Tudor history and served four monarchs and lived to the ripe old age of 87!  He was a participant in the executions of Sir Thomas More, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, the attempt to change the succession with lady Jane Grey and the sinking of the Mary Rose. He played a central role at royal weddings, coronations and funerals and, as a councillor and member of the House of Lords, he influenced major changes to the religion, economy and social fabric of England. He was definitely not a man of the shadows.  Please select the following link to learn more:
